Beaulieu bus stop and view point
Total project costs £11,950
Fund grant £8,000 (67% of total)
This project has replaced the old, dilapidated bus shelter in Beaulieu village with an improved facility in-keeping with the unique Beaulieu design. The new bus shelter provides seating on both sides, providing an ideal spot to view the Mill Pond Site of Special Scientific Interest and Palace House. It is intended that the new, more pleasant shelter will encourage people to make more use of local bus services, including the New Forest Tour.

The Sustainable Development Fund supported the establishment of a horse-drawn omnibus service based in Ringwood that offers visitors to the New Forest an alternative mode of transport to the car.
